All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Yeah, I knew he would be met with some groans but there really isn't anything else out there that I really need that will help as fast as he will.
I mean I have Edge at RB but at 7.5 mil he is definitely expendable.
I need help at other positions but none of them were worth the money I was gonna pay a round 1 guy IMO.

If that's the guy you wanted and you couldn't trade down then that's great. At least all of the picks are the same price. If you reach for a player(unlike the NFL) that you could've had later at least you're not paying more money for him.
I should gets some grunts too. There is no market to trade down and I got the best guy available at a position I needed to address.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Of the Rb's I had him rated the lowest, only because he is on that offense that is so diverse.
Yes, the offense might be diverse, but if and when he is the starter, he will get 20-30 carries a game and the Pats like to run the ball in the redzone and late in games.
With DeAngelo Williams, I know Foster is the starter and they still have Goings so that is a bit of a log jam.
With Addai, the Colts have plenty of backs that are going to be mixed in as well. Not to mention, Manning will be throwing the ball a lot more too.

I couldnt take that risk. Even with the first pick in the 2nd round. He is by far the best center available, I figured someone would have the same need between now and then.
Here is how my trade with Canada worked out.
Brewsers traded 1. Reggie Bush and Greg Spires
Canadien Radiation Kings traded 1. Nick Mangold, Lenard Little and Al Wilson.

Good pick, Michael. I was definitely interested in taking Mangold in the 2nd w/ one of my 3 picks, but it looks like he wasn't going to last even if you took someone else in the first (since your pick is just before mine in the 2nd).

It just wasnt a risk I wanted to take. I figured most people would have him as a target in the late first early second. And with Jeff Faine as my starter, I needed an improvement...bad.
